1 H appy are all who honor the Lord with fear, and who walk in His ways.

¶ Blessed is every one that fears the LORD, that walks in his ways.

2 F or you will eat the fruit of your hands. You will be happy and it will be well with you.

When thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands; happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.

3 Y our wife will be like a vine with much fruit within your house. Your children will be like olive plants around your table.

Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thy house; thy children like olive plants round about thy table.

4 T his is the good that will come to the man who honors the Lord with fear.

Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that fears the LORD.

5 M ay the Lord do good things for you from Zion. And may you see good come to Jerusalem all the days of your life.

The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion, and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

6 Y es, may you see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel.

Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children and peace upon Israel.
